“We couldn't have picked a better way to celebrate 27 years of Newport than closing with a filmmaker as exciting as Tony Gilroy,” said Gregg Schwenk, CEO and executive director of the Newport Beach Film Festival, according to Variety.
“This film has a deeply personal story about what music demands of the people who live inside it, and having Tony and Jade here in person for Q&A is exactly the kind of up-close experience that makes Newport unlike any other festival in the country,” Schwenk added.
The Newport Beach Film Festival will take place from October 15 to 22. Its lineup also includes A Talent for Murder, Ink, Josephine, La Bola Negra, The Only Living Pickpocket in New York, Paper Tiger and Wild Horse Nine.
Aaron Burns' Jimmy Stewart biopic Jimmy will also be screened at the festival, with its cast and crew scheduled to attend a Q&A following the screening.
The Newport Beach Film Festival is described as the largest international cinema event in coastal Southern California and attracts more than 50,000 attendees.
Last year, the festival closed with Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, starring Jacob Elordi, Mia Goth, Oscar Isaac and Christoph Waltz, according to Variety.
With Behemoth! set to close this year's festival, Gilroy and Healy will be present for the event and the discussion ahead of the screening. (ANI)
